When making purchases, you should also look at where you source items from. The further afield you buy your products from, the larger the carbon footprint. For many, sourcing household items or food products from faraway places is done without any consideration of environmental impact. For example, with the superfood craze, many people go out of their way to purchase exotic food products such as cacao, goji berries, chia seeds and acai from all corner of the globe. Good health intentions aside many people don’t seem to grasp that they are in fact accelerating the rate of climate change. One only needs to consider shopping distance and carbon emissions to understand this.
